Sol 4398: Right Navigation Camera, Cylindrical Projection - NASA Science (original) (raw)

NASA’s Mars rover Curiosity took 31 images in Gale Crater using its mast-mounted Right Navigation Camera (Navcam) to create this mosaic. The seam-corrected mosaic provides a 360-degree cylindrical projection panorama of the Martian surface centered at 244 degrees azimuth (measured clockwise from north). Curiosity took the images on December 20, 2024, Sol 4398 of the Mars Science Laboratory mission at drive 534, site number 112. The local mean solar time for the image exposures was from 1 PM to 2 PM. Each Navcam image has a 45 degree field of view.
